Cheesy Tortillas With Black Bean Puree Recipes

ENFRIJOLADAS

Steps:

• Add all of the sauce ingredients to a blender and process until smooth and pureed.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F and have ready a greased 9x13" casserole dish.
• Spoon just enough of the black bean sauce to the bottom of the dish and pour the remaining sauce into a shallow bowl or dish.
• Stack 4-6 tortillas and wrap loosely in damp paper towels. Microwave for about 30 seconds, just until the tortillas are warmed through. Repeat with any remaining corn tortillas.
• Dip a corn tortilla into bowl of sauce to coat. Then, transfer to a work surface and add a generous tablespoon of cheese down the center. Roll the tortilla and place it seam-side down in the casserole dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
• Once all the tortillas have been assembled, pour the remaining black bean sauce over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
• Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

BLACK BEAN, CHEESE, AND TORTILLA CASSEROLE RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 400 F. Oil a 9- or 10-inch casserole dish and set aside.
• Warm the olive oil in a chef's pan or large, deep skillet set over medium-high heat.
• Add the onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 to 8 minutes.
• Add the garlic, scallions, and cumin, and sauté about a minute more, or until fragrant.
• Stir in the black beans, tomato sauce, and salsa, lower the heat, and simmer, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Cover the bottom of the baking dish with 4 tortillas, overlapping or trimming to fit if necessary (if you are using a rectangular or oblong dish, you may want to cut a couple of the tortillas in half to get a better fit; don't worry if the tortillas don't cover the entire dish.)
• Toss the cheeses together in a small bowl.
• Sprinkle the tortillas with 1/3 of the cheese.
• Top with 1/2 of the tomato-bean mixture, smoothing the top with a spatula.
• Arrange 4 more tortillas over the beans, top with 1/3 of the cheese, and the rest of the beans.
• Top the casserole with the rest of the tortillas.
• Sprinkle evenly with the rest of the cheese, drizzle with a little olive oil, and bake, covered, for 20 minutes.
• Remove the foil and bake for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until golden and bubbly.
• Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
• Top as desired with guacamole , salsa, sour cream, and hot sauce.
• Serve and enjoy.

CHEESY, SPICY BLACK BEAN BAKE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 475 degrees. In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Fry the garlic until lightly golden, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste, paprika, red-pepper flakes and cumin (be careful of splattering), and fry for 30 seconds, reducing the heat as needed to prevent the garlic from burning.
• Add the beans, water and generous pinches of salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top then bake until the cheese has melted, 5 to 10 minutes. If the top is not as browned as you'd like, run the skillet under the broiler for 1 or 2 minutes. Serve immediately.

BLACK BEAN TORTILLA WITH SALSA

Steps:

• Tip the tomatoes into a pan and stir in the onion, ½ the chilli and the smoked paprika. Cook over a low heat for 10 mins. Tip ¾ into a bowl, then stir in 2 tbsp of the coriander and the olives and lemon juice.
• Meanwhile, heat the grill. Tip the beans into a bowl and stir in the remaining chilli, the garlic, cumin and coriander. Beat in the eggs, then add the reserved ¼ of the salsa and the remaining fresh coriander with a little salt to taste. Blitz a little using a hand blender or mash some of the beans with a potato masher.
• Heat a 24cm non-stick pan with the oil. Pour in the bean mixture and leave to cook gently for 5-7 mins until the base is set, then grill for 5 mins. Tip out and cut into 4 wedges. If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, serve two wedges with half of the remaining salsa and the rocket. Chill the rest for the following day.
